Japanese roboticist Hiroshi Ishiguro known to have created a freakishly similar Android clone of himself is back with his latest creation. It’s the Geminoid F that is a clone of a gal in her 20s and is able to smile and laugh more naturally than the most of the bots out there.

Ishiguro’s attention to detail is amazing (and scary too) because the female Android can mimic the exact facial expressions of the real life female sitting alongside her.

Ishiguro developed this bot in alliance with Kokoro Co. who says the Android can be used in hospitals or science museums and are planning to sell for 10 million yen or roughly US$110,000.
